Marc's correct -- at this point in time, only staff can
upload to docs.oasis-open.org. It's our goal to build an interface that will
support member uploads, but that project's on hold until we get past the email
server restoration.
All I should need is the single zip file which should
resolve to the appropriate directory structure.

Mary
I
agree. I believe we had always planned on posting the docs at the namespace
location there anyway. I think the zip is already prepared that could be used
to stage it. Only OASIS staff can upload there is my
understanding.

I
think using the docs repository may be a better idea since that may also
provide stable URI for hyperlinking from RDDL files. Editors, do you
agree?
If we
take the docs repository route, then I think we will need to work with the
OASIS staff to get the document area set up, etc. Could we get all of that
done before this week's conf-call (on 8/17 at 1 PM PST)?

Hi
Sanjay,
If I can unzip the package to the docs repository, I will be able to point
to each of the formats separately as well as the collection of ancillary
files. This is the most user-friendly approach. If the files aren't to be
uploaded to docs.oasis-open.org, I'd recommend one combined zip, separate
copies of the spec itself in each of the three formats, and a separate zip
of the ancillary files. That way the reviewers can download just the version
they want to review along with the ancillary data.

Mary,
Would
it be fine to provide you a single link that points to .zip package
containing specifications in the three formats along with RDDL files, and
WSDL, schema files (WSDL and schema artifacts are included in the
specifications as well), etc. Or do you expect separate links for the
three formats?
Copying
the Editors Team here to cut short the turnaround
time.

Excellent! I'll
need a link to the meeting minutes where the decision is recorded
(they can be unofficial) as well as a link to the document(s) in 3
formats: editable source, (X)HTML, and PDF. You can send it to me, and
please copy tc-admin so that it gets officially
logged.

Thanks
Mary! The background information is certainly
helpful.
Our
TC is going to vote for PR in this week. After that, is just an email
with link to the PR draft is sufficient to notify the OASIS
Administrator (yourself in this case I
suppose)?

Hi
Sanjay,
The comment process has a storied past :-) Originally an email
list to which anyone could post, it became riddled with spam. The
cure at the time (three years ago?) was to replace the list with a
web form - the only "person" that could actually post to the list
was the form. Besides all of the problems associated with a form for
trying to provide comments, spammers eventually figured out how to
mimic the form and spam the comment lists. This problem had been
going on for well over a year when we finally reverted back to the
email list, but this time requiring an authenticated subscription.
So, the posts that you see with the template information were
provided via the comment form which has now been disabled. The
instructions posted on the TC comment page do ask posters to provide
some information, which we can only hope that they'll
follow.
Regards,
Mary

Hi
Mary,
My
understanding is that the only channel for receiving comments from
the public during the PR period is via the ws-rx-comment list. Is
that right?
I was
browsing through the public comment lists of some other TCs and
noticed that the comment emails include some template information
at the top (submitter's name, organization, etc). I wonder whether
that information was explicitly included by the submitter
following some guideline, or it was a result of some comments form
usage. Please clarify.
